Clinics will improve beginning rider’s skills and take advanced riders to a new level of horsemanship. The horse and rider will learn how to improve awareness of each other’s needs; learn the power of focus; develop more confidence. Riders will build a partnership with their horses that will make riding even more fun and enjoyable.
This is a great opportunity for horse owners to learn new techniques and learn to teach their own horse in a positive and safe environment. The camaraderie, which develops in these clinics, is incredible. The results speak for themselves. The length and format can be custom tailored to the needs’ of the hosting organization and participants.
